Saginaw, Canadian Lader, H C Jackson

Had another great day in Marquette yesterday.  Although bright sunlight made it difficult to get good pictures, it was still fun!  Both the Canadian Leader and Saginaw were at the dock loading, and the Herbert C Jackson brought coal to the Shiras dock in the lower harbor before going to the ore dock later in the day.  How good is that!  The James Barker is in today at the upper harbor coal hopper, but too busy to go in for a pic.  

Ships and boats galore

Wow, finally seeing a few ships.  The Mesabi Miner was in last night.  The tugs Billmaier and Hammond Bay are working with the F. Schwartz crane to add rocks to the lower harbor breakwall.  The Keweenaw Star is doing cruises (took the Blues Cruise last night, beautiful night!) as part of Maritime Month.  Today the Canadian Leader and Michipicoten arrived at the ore dock and the Joyce VanEnkevort/Great Lakes Trader brought stone to the lower harbor Shiras Dock.  Finally getting a ship fix!!  Will see how many pics this blog will post....

Hope the comments section is working.  It had a filter on it which I removed.  Now, just stay nice and I won't have to put it back on.  :o)
